4GB of RAM on a machine (regardless of OS) is absolutely fine for browsing the "modern web".

Windows alone uses like 2GB, open some tabs and you are already out of ram. I think 8 is the new minimum.

I have 30 tabs open in Chrome, real tabs, on youtube, PDFs, and code/API docs, and I just cycled through them all to make sure they are loaded, and Chrome is at 600MB.

The phase "open some tabs and you are already out of ram" is a bit of an exaggeration.

That is the opposite of what I see on a daily basis managing several 100+ SMB Windows based computer networks. I'm curious what your summary is to back up 4GB being absolutely fine.

Maybe, if you have only one tab open
